With that said, didn't you snap your **** up going from low volume/low intensity to medium-low volume/quasi medium intensity too quickly? If your plan, ultimately, is to work your way up to doing something high volume, like this or reverse Juggernaut or whatever, then fine, but I'd structure your current training to allow yourself to acclimate. Slowly adding volume, acclimating, and then slowly adding intensity would probably be the safest giving your past issues.
I snapped my chit up from going from 5-3-1 to 7-5-3 or whatever ogus program entails I don’t recall the set/rep scheme but it was being v fatigued with 7 sets or so.
Right now I’m doing 5-3-1 then 4 sets each dl/squat/bench/shoulder press session so that’s 7 sets which is decent for a compound movement. I think prob should just keep it all the same for the time being. Maybe eventually add more volume to hack squats or leg press.
